Back

  • Market capitalisation of approximately NOK 1.8 billion
  • The 47th listing on Euronext in 2025

Oslo –  28 August 2025 – Euronext congratulates Smartoptics Group ASA (ticker: SMOP) on its transfer from Euronext Growth Oslo to Euronext Oslo Børs. The company listed on Euronext Growth Oslo in 2021. This marks the 47th listing on Euronext markets and the tenth on Euronext Oslo Børs’ markets in 2025.

Smartoptics is a Scandinavian company, founded in 2006, that provides innovative solutions for sending data over fibre networks. Its technology helps thousands of enterprises, governments, cloud providers and telecom operators move information quickly and securely, while avoiding vendor lock-in and keeping costs down. Smartoptics’ products are used in metro and regional networks that rely on data centre services. The company works with over 100 business partners worldwide and is headquartered in Oslo, Norway. 

At the market opening today, the price was NOK 18.50 per share based on the closing price on Euronext Growth Oslo on 27 August 2025. This gave the company a market value of NOK 1.81 billion this morning.


Thomas Ramm, Chairman of the Board of Smartoptics, said: “Uplisting to the main market at Euronext Oslo Børs represents a strong validation of Smartoptics’ growth story and investment case. Since our listing on Euronext Growth Oslo in 2021, we have combined profitable growth with disciplined capital allocation, delivering three dividend distributions totalling NOK 1.60 per share. The main market will provide increased visibility, deeper liquidity, and access to a broader international investor base – all of which will further support long-term value creation for our shareholders. This uplisting is both a recognition of our achievements and a launchpad for the future.
